Back to a few days ago, Ye Nanning was tempted when she learned that the house opposite Du Xiran was for rent.
After returning to the apartment, everything I saw was unpleasant.
The decoration is too luxurious and high-profile, the bathroom is so big that it wastes space, there are too many wardrobes and it is a waste of money, the floor is shiny and smooth, it is easy to fall and endanger your life.
She convinced herself that it was time to move to a new house in order to protect her life.
On the way to the company the next day, I suddenly thought of a better reason to move. The apartment is too far away from the company. It takes more than half an hour to drive there, and taking the bus is prone to traffic jams.
Although Du Xiran's house is only a 20-minute drive from the company, he can sleep ten more minutes every day!
And maybe I could even get a ride with Mr. Du, which would be great.
In short, all the reasons put together point to the option of moving.
That was a happy decision.
After working overtime on Monday, she contacted the agency to rent a house, and then signed the contract and moved in.
The contract was initially required to be signed in the store, but the store was in a shop in the community. What if Du Xiran saw it? And what if she was asked not to move there?
Now that you have made the decision, you should do it in one go.
Especially when pursuing a girlfriend, you must do it in one go.
For a socially anxious person like her, once she misses this opportunity, it will be difficult to make a decision at the right time next time.
Now is the right time, right place and right people. If you don’t move, you’re not a Chinese!
She made an appointment with the agent to sign the contract at a coffee shop near the school, and then contacted the moving company.
After working overtime for two consecutive days, she was exhausted when she went home to pack up her things. However, when she thought about being neighbors with Du Xiran, she felt like a chicken with its blood pumped up, and did not feel tired at all.
Finally, the move was successfully completed on Thursday night. She looked at the empty new home filled with her boxes and felt inexplicably happy.
She got up very early the next morning. The kitchen of her new home had not yet been prepared, so she went downstairs to buy breakfast. Seeing that it was still early, she went home to clean up for a while.
Then he would calculate the time, stand behind the door, and stare through the peephole to see what was happening at the door opposite.
Time passed minute by minute, and the door was finally opened from the inside. Du Xiran was carrying her bag and was about to go out.
She immediately stood up straight, ignoring her nervous heartbeat, pretended to be calm and opened the door, and greeted him calmly: "Morning, Mr. Du."
The next moment, Mr. Du retreated back to the room and closed the door.
? ?
Ye Nanning felt panicky. Could it be that President Du was in a bad mood because he saw her so early in the morning?
Then, the door opened again, and Du Xiran looked at her in surprise: "Why are you here?!"
Fortunately, he didn't hate her, Ye Nanning thought thankfully, and said, "I moved and live here now."
"Moving?" Du Xiran looked at her in disbelief. "Moving across the street? When did it happen? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
"The landlord was selling the original house, so we moved in a hurry."
Du Xiran walked into the elevator with her and frowned, "The sale does not break the lease, how can I kick you out?"
Ye Nanning quickly explained: "I'm not rushing. The lease of the house is about to expire, and the new owner has children at home and won't rent it out. It just so happens that you have a vacant room here, so I moved here..."
Du Xiran took her to the parking lot, and after getting in the car, he asked, "You didn't move here because you wanted to take my ride every day, did you?"
"Hmm..."
I have to say that this is indeed a big influencing factor. Hitchhiking every day means that you can go to work together every day, have an extra half hour of alone time every day, and the first person you see every day is each other!
However, Du Xiran didn't think so much about it. He just thought that the girl wanted to save some transportation costs, so she took a ride every day, and she could save enough money for a set of clothes in a month.
Du Xiran smiled innocently: "You can use my car, you can drive it from now on."
"No problem! Mr. Du, you are so nice!" Ye Nanning said in a sonorous and powerful voice.
"But the rent in our community doesn't seem cheap. Do you want to rent alone or share the house with someone?"
"Alone." Ye Nanning lowered her head. "I have a bad personality. If I share a house with my roommates, they won't like me."
"Why do you have such an idea?" Du Xiran was puzzled, and suddenly thought of the posts on the school forum that slandered her and took advantage of her misfortune, "Did you move out because you have a bad relationship with your roommates?"
Ye Nanning bit her lip: "I'm used to living alone."
Sharing a house always brings up all kinds of troubles. Roommates often say she is aloof and difficult to approach at the beginning, and then quickly sign up to play together. Even if there is no ill intention, Ye Nanning will be the first one to be left alone.
A person is most lonely when she is among a crowd. Everyone is happy except her, who is isolated from the crowd.
So she would rather choose solitude, at least she can do whatever she wants.
"Don't think too much. There's nothing wrong with your personality."
Du Xiran's voice brought her out of her memories, and she asked in surprise: "Boss Du, don't you think I have a bad personality?"
Du Xiran: "I never cook with people with bad personalities, as it will affect my mood during the meal."
Ye Nanning felt warm in her heart, and she said, "But most of your salary is spent on rent, so I guess you can't eat out often."
Ye Nanning was stunned.
"I'll see if I can find another dining companion."
"I can!" Ye Nanning said proudly, "It's just a few meals. I can afford it. At worst, I can get a few more jobs."
Du Xiran laughed out loud: "All your hard work is just for food and shelter?"
Ye Nanning muttered: "People live for a mouth and a bed."
Du Xiran smiled and thought that times really have changed. When she had just graduated, she still lived in the suburbs. She squeezed into the subway during rush hour every day, lived frugally, and hoped to save some money to buy a house.
However, we cannot say that anyone’s lifestyle is correct. After all, everyone lives his or her own life and has no right to interfere in other people’s lives. As long as you are happy, that’s enough.
If she thinks it's worth living well, then let her live there.
After arriving at the company, the two took the elevator together. Ye Nanning really liked the feeling of going in and out together. She secretly rejoiced for a while and heard the person next to her greet her: "Good morning, Ye Nanning, have you had breakfast?"
Ye Nanning turned her head and saw that it was Hu Jiaxu, and nodded.
Hu Jiaxu asked again: "What did you eat?"
Ye Nanning: "Rice noodles."
Even though she was just asking and answering questions, Hu Jiaxu didn't feel cold, because after Ye Nanning helped her last time, she developed a good impression of Ye Nanning and realized that when interacting with people, one should not only look at appearance and first impression.
Hu Jiaxu smiled and said, "I'm having Xiao Long Bao. What are you having for lunch? Do you want to eat with me?"
Ye Nanning shook her head: "I can eat it alone."
Hu Jiaxu glanced at the other people in the elevator and saw that there was no one he knew. However, he still leaned close to her ear cautiously and whispered, "I'm not eating with Hu Hanqiao and the others, don't worry."
Because of her sudden approach, Ye Nanning subconsciously tried to avoid her, and leaned back, actually leaning on Du Xiran's shoulder.
Just when she wanted to die to apologize, Du Xiran reached out a hand from behind to support her: "Be careful."
Ye Nanning: ! !
Aww! I was hugged by Mr. Du. I want to take my arms off and put them on display!
"How about it? Do you want to eat together?" Hu Jiaxu confirmed again.
Ye Nanning nodded dazedly.
The elevator door opened, and Hu Jiaxu walked in front with a smile: "Okay, I'll help you order takeout later."
Ye Nanning couldn't refuse her kindness, so she had to agree. Then she followed Du Xiran to the area where they were. Du Xiran whispered, "Look, don't you have friends?"
Ye Nanning knew that she was comforting herself, but she didn't dare to have any expectations, and said, "That's because she hasn't gotten to know me well yet. Maybe she won't be able to stand me in a few days."
"Why?"
"Anyway...it will be like this." Ye Nanning stammered.
Du Xiran saw a hint of hurt on her usual cold face, and didn't understand what she had been through, but it was conceivable that she had almost no friends, so she was instinctively resistant to interpersonal relationships.
"Let's go to work first." Du Xiran said.
"good."
Ye Nanning returned to her seat and worked for a while before it was time for a meeting.
The acquisition has been completely negotiated, and the next step is to deal with the contract and various materials to help both clients achieve their goals.
"Xu Huan is still in charge of this aspect as she has experience. Shui Min, you should also bring your analysts to join Xu Huan and assist her in her work. Although you are not often in charge of this area, you should always have more contact with it." Du Xiran said.
"OK."
"Try not to have conflicts with clients during work and make them satisfied with our work, especially the acquirers. Their purpose of acquisition is to go public. We should strive to take over the listed projects as well. Do you understand?"
Everyone nodded.
The meeting was almost over. At this time, Du Xiran suddenly looked at Xu Huan and asked, "Ye Nanning has been here for almost a month. How do you think she is doing?"
Ye Nanning was stunned. She didn't expect to be called at this time. For some reason, she felt like she was in class.
When she was in school, the teacher always liked to call on her to answer questions. After she answered, the teacher would ask the students to comment on her answer. At first, the students would comment seriously, but over time, everyone felt that the teacher was partial to her and that she was arrogant. She had a bad face even when she was praised by the teacher, so they stopped commenting on her. Everyone remained silent and stared at her quietly. She stood alone in the classroom, only feeling the cold wind outside the window was a little cold.
Ye Nanning looked at Xu Huan nervously, with a hint of fragility in her eyes. Then she saw Xu Huan speak: "I think Xiaoye is really amazing! She is very efficient and smart. In fact, I have been so busy recently that I have no time to guide her or teach her anything, but she can already complete the task on her own. It is really worry-free. I hope every intern is as good as her."
Ye Nanning blushed slightly, feeling that she was not as powerful as she said.
"Xiao Ye is really nice. He helped me organize the documents and print the manuscripts, taking up his off-get off work time and working hard. Xiao Ye, I'll treat you to a meal some other day." Chen Shuimin said.
Ye Nanning: "Thank you."
"Xiao Ye is really a fierce general. Joining our team is really a great addition. I think Xiao Ye has great potential and will achieve great things in the future, so I have to curry favor with him first. Xiao Ye, don't forget your brother Lao Wang when you become successful in the future." Lao Wang said with a smile.
"Thank you for the compliment." Ye Nanning scratched her head, feeling a little shy.
Du Xiran smiled and said, "Since you like her so much, don't wait until next time to treat her to a meal. Today is Friday, let's have a meal together after get off work."
"Okay, I'll treat you!" said Chen Shuimin.
Xu Huan: "Then I'll come next time."
Everyone has started discussing the location of the dinner, and the meeting room is bustling with activity. Ye Nanning looked at her colleagues and couldn't help but curl her lips. When she looked at Du Xiran again, she found that he was also looking at her with a smile.
Suddenly, she remembered that it was Du Xiran who brought up this topic.
Did President Du do this on purpose? To let her see the sincerity of her colleagues?
Ye Nanning looked at her blankly, and suddenly smiled brilliantly, like a spring breeze blowing across the snow, bringing up the stunning spring scenery.
Du Xiran was stunned for a moment, and was actually attracted for a moment.
Indeed, beauty knows no gender.
At lunch, Ye Nanning ate with Hu Jiaxu. The two of them ate in front of Ye Nanning's workstation because there were too many people in the tea room.
Hu Jiaxu was not shy and started chatting after taking a few bites. He talked about everything from school life to his internship over the past half month. Ye Nanning would agree with him from time to time, while keeping an eye on the movements in the office.
Du Xiran has been busy in the office until now. Finally, she pushed open the door and came out.
Ye Nanning stared at the food. After a moment, footsteps stopped opposite her. Du Xiran's voice with a hint of laughter came from above her head: "Oh, you are having dinner with new friends."
"Hello, Mr. Du, my name is Hu Jiaxu." Hu Jiaxu took the initiative to greet, smiling and very likable.
"Do you know me?" Du Xiran asked in surprise.
"Of course. I met you just a few days after I came here. You are so beautiful and you became the vice president at such a young age. I envy you so much." Hu Jiaxu said.
Du Xiran laughed and glanced at her work badge: "You're so sweet, Hu Jiaxu, right? I'll remember you."
"Thank you, Mr. Du."
Ye Nanning watched their familiar conversation, as if they were good friends who had known each other for many years. The look she gave Hu Jiaxu changed, and she was filled with envy, jealousy and hatred.
"Mr. Du, go and have dinner soon." Ye Nanning reminded.
The two were stunned. Seeing her stiff tone and expression, she suddenly said such a sentence, which surprised them.
Hu Jiaxu looked at her with admiration.
Du Xiran laughed angrily: "Are you ordering me?"
"I care about you." Ye Nanning said.
"Really? You don't look concerned at all, you seem angry."
"No." Ye Nanning forced a smile, which really proved the old saying - laughing is uglier than crying.
Hu Jiaxu fell to the ground laughing, and Du Xiran also covered her face with her hands, her red lips curled up: "Okay, I won't disturb you kids from eating, I should go find some food too."
After watching Du Xiran leave, Ye Nanning looked away. Seeing Hu Jiaxu staring at her, she subconsciously stepped back and asked warily, "What are you doing?"
"I just thought you were amazing. You actually dared to talk to your VP like that. I don't dare to talk to my VP like that. He's too fierce. I don't even dare to make a joke." Hu Jiaxu finished speaking and praised her equally, "But Ms. Du is also very nice. I've always heard that she is very strict and I thought she was a queen of flowers. I didn't expect her to be so approachable. She's really pretty."
Ye Nanning silently moved the lunch box to the side and ate with his back to her.
"Hey, Ye Nanning, what's wrong with you?" Hu Jiaxu asked.
Ye Nanning didn't want to talk to her.
Hu Jiaxu poked her back and said, "Do you want some ribs? I don't like ribs. I didn't touch this one."
Ye Nanning shook her head. Suddenly, she turned around and looked at Hu Jiaxu, who was looking at her hesitantly as if he wanted to say something.
"What's wrong? Do you want to ask something?" Hu Jiaxu blinked and encouraged, "Ask anything, I'll see if I can answer it."
Ye Nanning really asked: "What do you think of President Du?"
"It's pretty good."
"So do you like her?"
“I like it.”
Ye Nanning ate with her back to her again, her face puffed up like a puffer fish with anger.
"But I'm just saying this based on my first impression. What if Mr. Du is difficult to get along with in private?" Hu Jiaxu said.
Nonsense! Mr. Du is also awesome in private!
Ye Nanning turned her head abruptly, wanting to refute her, but she continued on her own: "But Ms. Du shouldn't be that kind of person. Appearance reflects the heart. She must be a good person in private."
Ye Nanning then retracted her angry gaze and asked, "Do you have a boyfriend?"
Hu Jiaxu's eyes widened, and he looked around before whispering to her, "I'm only telling you this, don't tell anyone else. I actually have a guy I'm courting, but he's going abroad for further studies next month, so I'm not sure whether I should confess my feelings to him. What do you think? Do you have any good suggestions?"
Ye Nanning silently handed her the Coke in the set meal.
As long as you don’t like Mr. Du, we are friends!
